The ICC recently announced it was looking into war crimes allegations against the U.S. in Afghanistan. Now, the Trump administration is pushing back with an executive order targeting ICC staff.

Kabuga had eluded capture for about a quarter-century, despite an international effort seeking to bring him to justice for his role in the 1994 Rwandan genocide. He was arrested in France on Saturday.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blasted the decision, calling it a "breathtaking action by an unaccountable political institution." Human rights groups are applauding the move.

The de facto leader of Myanmar will testify in front of the International Criminal Court to answer charges that her country carried out genocide against the Muslim minority group.

The judges at the International Criminal Court said that the probe would be "inevitably doomed to failure." It's a victory for the White House, which has spoken out against an investigation.

Laurent Gbagbo had been charged with crimes against humanity allegedly committed in the wake of his 2010 electoral loss. Charges against his former youth minister also were dropped.

National Security Adviser John Bolton says the U.S. will do all it can to protect Americans from ICC action — calling the proposed investigation of war crimes in Afghanistan "utterly unfounded."

The decision will shutter the Palestinian diplomatic mission to the U.S. The U.S. says the PLO has not taken steps to begin 'meaningful negotiations' with Israel.

The move comes after the ICC opened an investigation into Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs. Withdrawing does not keep the country from facing charges of human rights abuse.

"The states in the Security Council don't want justice," Carla Del Ponte told the Swiss publication Blick. "I can't any longer be part of this commission which simply doesn't do anything."
